Mahatma Gandhi

“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.”

“The inner voice is something which cannot be described in words. But sometimes we have a positive feeling that something in us prompts us to do a certain thing. The time when I learnt to recognise this voice was, I may say, the time when I started praying regularly.”

“One's own religion is after all a matter between oneself and one's Maker and no one else's.”

“Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause.”

“I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.”

“Action expresses priorities.”

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”

“I will far rather see the race of man extinct than that we should become less than beasts by making the noblest of God's creation, woman, the object of our lust.”

“Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding.”

“The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.”

“It is the quality of our work which will please God and not the quantity.”

“A true Brahmachari will not even dream of satisfying the fleshly appetite”

“Hate the sin, love the sinner.”

“A nation's culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people.”

“Whatever you do may seem insignificant to you, but it is most important that you do it.”

“Each one prays to God according to his own light.”

“Gentleness, self-sacrifice and generosity are the exclusive possession of no one race or religion.”

“Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.”

“The main purpose of life is to live rightly, think rightly, act rightly. The soul must languish when we give all our thought to the body.”

“Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit.”
